Yuan Hong glanced at Zhu San, who was about the same age as himself, and secretly said: This guy doesn't harm people's lives, and second, he is a first-time offender, in view of our more dangerous situation, this time we will let him go.

Coughing, he knocked Zhu San's chest with his knuckles, and reprimanded: "I can let you go this time, but you can't come out again to scare people in the future." Seeing that Zhu San said yes, he smiled slightly: "Although your brain is not very bright, your acting skills are not bad, especially the tone that you pretend to be very realistic." In my opinion, you might as well go to Changyang City in the southeast to try your luck, maybe a certain drama troupe or acrobatic troupe has the insight to accept you, and it is not impossible. ”

When Zhu San heard this, he frowned and said: "Actually, I also want to go to the city to wander around, but my father and mother died tragically under the tiger's mouth when they were doing farm work last month." Our family was already very poor, and I sold all the valuable things in the family so that I could bury my father and mother. Changyang City is a hundred miles away from here, even if you save money, you can't get there without a few hundred papers. ”

Hearing what happened to Zhu San, Liang Yun'er felt a sour feeling in her heart, and immediately took out a silver ingot and handed it to him: "Na, here are two taels of silver for you to wrap around." Remember, you are not allowed to do anything lacking in virtue in the future, if it wasn't for my senior brother by my side just now, I would have been scared to death by you. ”

Zhu San accepted the silver, immediately knelt on the ground, and kowtowed three times in a row: "Thank you two benevolent fathers! ”

Yuan Hong immediately helped him up and said quite solemnly: "The man has gold under his knees, don't kneel down for a little favor." We help you not only because you deserve sympathy, but for more important reasons. ”

Seeing that Zhu San's expression was extremely confused, Yuan Hong put his hands behind his back and raised his head and said: "In this life, people can bury their heads in silence, they can bury their feelings in their hearts, and they can even bury their corpses in the wilderness, but there is one thing that must not be buried!"

"What is it?" Zhu San hurriedly asked.

"Talent!"

Yuan Hong lowered his head slightly, staring at Zhu San's eyes with a blazing light, as if he wanted to inject a burst of fiery energy into his eyes and heart.

"I see. In this life, the emphasis is on living a worthwhile life and living without regrets. We'll see you later!"

Just as Zhu San was about to turn around and leave, Yuan Hong suddenly pressed his shoulder: "Wait! I want to ask you about someone." There is a seventeen or eighteen-year-old young man in this town, with a shallow scar on his face, he is very arrogant, and there are not only two young followers behind him, but also a few fierce dead soldiers, do you know where he came from?"

Without much thought, Zhu San blurted out, "Oh." The person you are talking about is the youngest son of Jiang Beihuo, the richest man in the town, named Jiang Hua, who studied art at the Wumeng Academy on the outskirts of the town, and I heard that he has just entered the late stage of deep dreams - hey, I don't know much about these either. ”

"Jiang Beihuo?" Liang Yun'er seemed to understand something, and rolled her eyes and said, "Does this Jiang Beihuo have a brother named Jiang Beishuang, who lives in the holy city of Yong'an and does silk and cotton yarn business?"

"Yes, yes, Jiang Beihuo's eldest brother is called Jiang Beishuang, but I have only heard that I have never seen him, Jiang Beishuang's son Jiang Chun I have seen, he often has dealings with his cousin Jiang Hua, oops, this person is very amazing!"

The more Zhu San spoke, the more interested he became, and when he was talking about the knots, he suddenly stopped abruptly, and the routine was so well played, it was a pity not to tell the story.

"Oh, what's the matter?" Yuan Hong raised his chest slightly, full of curiosity for a moment.

Zhu San shook his fingers while circling around the two of them: "This Jiang Chun, who studied in the Tengyun Pavilion of the Western Regions Gate Sect, is said to be the third disciple of the pavilion master, and is proficient in what shadow dream technique, controlling things, controlling corpses, and almost anything. Also, the last time he came to visit Jiang Hua, he was ambushed by three or five professional killers on the way, and guess what, as soon as he made a casual move, several killers were killed instantly. ”

Hearing Zhu San say this, Yuan Hong couldn't help but secretly say: If Zhu San didn't exaggerate, then Jiang Chun's strength would be above the eldest brother and the fourth brother. If I confront him head-on, I will die. It's hard to say whether Gu Xifeng can recover or not, if there are any more extraneous branches now, I'm afraid that things will get worse and worse. I'd better leave as soon as possible.

"Then do you know what Jiang Beihuo's family does?" Liang Yun'er couldn't hold back her curiosity and asked.

"There's nothing I don't know about this town. Although Jiang Beihuo is not as famous as Jiang Beishuang, his ability is not small. The cloth village and clothing shop in this town are all his private property, and even Changyang City has his footprints. He has a big family, and his family has twenty or thirty dead soldiers, although these dead soldiers are not first-class masters, they can deal with ordinary people and can beat him to a mess. Zhu San still spoke with relish.

Yuan Hong's eyes rolled, and he smiled slightly: "Zhu San, do you know where there is a shortcut out of town?"

Zhu San pointed to the depths of the dark alley and said, "Keep walking forward, then turn right, and you will see a narrow road." Out of Yongdao, he crossed Panlong Mountain and left Yang'an Town. ”

When Yuan Hong heard this, he couldn't thank him, and immediately led Liang Yun'er to Yongdao.

The road was wet and slippery, and what was even more unbearable was the dark and terrifying atmosphere. Liang Yun'er took out a candle from her baggage and lit it with the "Fire Technique" in Dream Control. Yuan Hong took the candle, held it high, and dragged Liang Yun'er deeper step by step.

Although the corridor is not very spacious, it stretches endlessly, and it is difficult to see the end. The rancid smell and urine almost stunned the two of them, and the "creaking" screams made people feel pimples. Yuan Hong took a closer look around, and saw that there were many small stones on the ground, and there was a long wooden sign lying horizontally between the stones, on which were written "This hole is forbidden" Four unusually conspicuous big characters.

While continuing to go deeper, Yuan Hong raised his head and looked carefully. At a glance, the stones on the top of the cave seem to fall down in an instant, and it seems that the road has been abandoned, so it has been in disrepair for many years, and the hidden danger is great.

Suddenly, without paying attention, Yuan Hong stepped on something soft, as if he had been grabbed by his foot, and almost tripped. He crouched down and lit it with a candle, only to realize that the soft thing was actually a dead woman!

The corpse was next to a large bloodstained stone, which had not yet decomposed, and from its face and makeup style, it was clear that the woman was still a young girl. The girl's hair was fluffy and snow-white, longer than Liang Yun'er's. Under her fluffy hair, the scars and blood stains on her forehead could be faintly seen.

He couldn't help but secretly say: It's strange, how could a girl die in this place? No!

Without thinking too much, he handed the candle to Liang Yun'er, and hurriedly lifted the deceased's clothes and examined them carefully.

Liang Yun'er held the candle and pinched her nose at the same time, looking tormented.

Yuan Hong covered the deceased's clothes back, straightened his waist weakly, and was stunned.

Seeing that Yuan Hong was so angry, Liang Yun'er gently pushed him: "Senior brother, what's wrong?"

Yuan Hong shook his head and said in a low voice: "This girl was raped and killed. ”

Liang Yun'er was very puzzled and said, "How do you know? Who would be so stupid to run to this place and wait to do bad things, besides, girls don't dare to get into such a terrifying corridor." ”

Yuan Hong squatted down again and lifted the girl's shirt, and said slowly: "You see, the deceased has multiple scratches on her chest, which shows that before she died, she either left the other party's paw prints in a fight, or she was resisting the violent acts, and was scratched by the thugs in a hurry. And ......"

"What else? Liang Yun'er saw him spitting and spitting, and she was really a little impatient.

Yuan Hong glanced at Liang Yun'er and said, "Just now...... I lifted her undershirt, and it was clear that she had been violently assaulted by her killer with great reluctance. Moreover, although there was a wound on her forehead, it did not seem to be the cause of her death, and in my opinion, it was deliberately chiseled by the murderer after her death. ”

Liang Yun'er glanced at the girl and said shyly: "Are you so sure? The head is the most leaky place for people, and it is also the most fragile and deadly." If you are not careful, you will be hit in the head by a loose stone in the corridor, and you will also die. You see, there was blood on the stone, and there was a small patch of blood under her head. ”

Yuan Hong stroked Liang Yun'er's shoulders and said softly: "You have a point, but it doesn't apply to her." I had just carefully examined her hands and feet, and I found that the front half of her feet had a thick layer of calluses, as did her five toes, but not the back half of her feet, nor her hands. ”

Liang Yun'er turned the deceased's hair to both sides, revealing his whole face: "What does this mean? Although her appearance is good, her face is a little rough, and it can be seen that she is a weather-beaten peasant girl." A peasant girl inevitably needs to do a lot of work, and it is normal to have calluses on her feet. ”

Yuan Hong shook his head: "That's the problem. If you just do some ordinary farm work, it is impossible to have calluses on your feet, but there are no calluses on your hands, even if you pick up heavy objects every day, you should have thick calluses on your heels. Therefore, it seems to me that there is only one possibility, that this woman should be from a sect that we have not heard of. This sect may be located hundreds of miles away, or it may be thousands of miles away, or even farther away. ”

Liang Yun'er was silent, as if she was thinking about something. Perhaps, she heard a few words thousands of miles away, and thus thought that she was also drifting in a foreign land. If she connected the dead with herself, she would naturally feel infinite horror.
